• The unit should be connected to a power supply outlet only

of the voltage and frequency marked on its rear panel.

• This Class I apparatus shall be connected to a MAINS socket

outlet with a protective earthing connection.

• As the plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect

device shall remain readily operable.

• The power supply cord should be routed so that it is not

likely to be walked on or pinched, especially near the plug,

dio or television reception, which can be determined by turning

the product off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct

the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the product and receiver.

• Connect the product into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician

for help.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING

If an outside antenna is connected to your tuner or tuner/pre

ampliﬁer, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro

vide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static

charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA

No. 701984, provides information with respect to proper ground-

ing of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in

wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,

location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding elec

trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

a. Use No.10 AWG (5.3 mm2) copper, No.8 AWG (8.4 mm2) alu

minum, No.17 AWG (1.0 mm2) copper clad steel or bronze

wire, or larger, as a ground wire.

b. Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand-

off insulators spaced from 46 feet (1.221.83 m) apart.

c. Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where

lead-in enters house.

d. Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG (13.3 mm2) cop-

per, or the equivalent, when a separate antenna grounding

electrode is used. See NEC Section 810-21 (j).

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL ELEC

TRICAL CODE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN ARTICLE 810. RA

DIO AND TELEVISION EQUIPMENT.

NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s at

tention to Article 82022 of the National Electrical Code that pro
